D-DU-UDU
 you opened up your door
I  couldn't believe my luck
you  in your new blue dress
taking  away my  breath
the  cradle is soft and warm
couldn't  do me no harm
you're  showing me how to give
into  temptation
knowing  full well the earth  will rebel
into  temptation
a  muddle of nervous words
could  never amount to betrayal
the  sentence is all my own
the  price is to watch it fail
as  I turn to go
you  looked at me  for half a second
with  an open invitation
for  me to go
into  temptation
knowing  full well the earth  will rebel
into  temptation
safe  in the wide  open arms  of hell
we  can go sailing  in
climb down, lose  yourself when you linger  long
into  temptation
right  where you  belong
 the guilty get no sleep
 in the last  slow hours of morning
experience  is cheap
I  should've listened to the warning
 but the cradle  is soft and warm
into  temptation
knowing  full well  the earth  will rebel
into  your wide open arms
 no way  to break  the spell
break  this spell
don't  tell
